Onosatons power is incredible...Even with a good maemitsu grip Hiradouli can't do nothing when Onosato decide to just move forward. Hoshoryu is undefeated but he always seems to be on the edge on his bouts. His acrobat's skills give him the win but until when? Aonishiki continues to impress me. Where is the limit for him?

At first i thought elbow injury but now see more a biceps tear because if Kirishimans Kimedashi

I'm surprised no one saw that Oho dislocated a finger on his left hand. He came out wincing. I hope it doesn't affect his basho. If it's put back in place right away and the ligaments aren't affected, it might...

Hello all, Do you know a website who list all the oyokata and their role within the association? I know a webiste call Oyokata.seisei.de but the informations are not up to date. Thank you !

Fantastic video ! Thanks a lot !

Hello all, does a magazine or book of the sumo year in review exist? I follow sumo since 2006 and i'm interested of any year in review since if it can be found somewhere. Thanks in advance !

I calculate the average number a rikishi per year. And for the first time since 1974, this number is under 600 for the year. The peak was in 1994 with 896 rikishi on average. Since 1996 the number is going down. A brief surge can be observe between 2014 and 2020 but since then it continues to go down. How can we explain that? The difficulty of a rikishi's life. Of course but also the quality of life and salary are better now and the money they can earn if they reach sekitori is not the main thing nowdays. I think we will continue to see less and less recruits. BUT the recruits are much more better because they come with a university or at least high school pedigree for the most part. Maybe allowing a second foreigner or even accept as much foreigners as much as a heya want can be a good idea. What do you think?

All right then :) Btw sad to hear the news of Kitanofuji's death. I follow sumo since 2006 and he has always been a commentator. I love his sens of humour who was sometimes borderline. Rest in peace Yokozuna. He will find his friend Tamanoumi somewhere in heaven now.

I usually rate each rikishi's bout on a scale of 0 to 5. (Next basho i will do on a scale of 0 - 3 - easier). Here is the favorites (at least mine)" quality of sumo" ratings. Hoshoryu / O / 12-1 / 4.16 Kotozakura / O / 12-1 / 3.76 Daieisho / S / 7-6 / 3.53 Abi / M3 / 10-3 / 3.33 Wakatakakage / M2 / 9-4 / 3.30 Onosato / O / 8-5 / 3.23 Takerufuji / M16 / 8-5 / 3.08 Wakamotoharu / K / 8-5 / 2.69 Kirishima / S / 6-7 / 1.92 The biggest dissapointment is for Kirishima. I don't know if anything is wrong physically but he seems to lack power in some bouts. Very strange. The other one not doing as expected is Takerufuji. At M16, i thought he will cruise throught the first week but he did not. Maybe his sumo is becoming too predictable now. Daieisho is doing well. His losses to Wakatakakage and Atamifuji on day 2 and 3 hampered his basho. Wakatakakage is doing great but not against the Ozeki. He lost these 3 bouts very easily. And Abi punished him too. On the other hand Hoshoryu and Kotozakura are doing magnificent. I give the edge to Hoshoryu because of his fighting spirit. This time he has the eyes of a tiger going on.

No no no i'm not an AI! I just made a mistake by watching a wrong files. I watch my Ozeki file instead of the Yokozuna one. I'm almost immediatly deleted my post but it seems it went throught anyway. Sorry about that verybody.

So 6 guys either intai or going down. Takakeisho, Myogiryu, Aoiyama => Intai Oshoumi 6-9 at Juryo 14w down for sure. Chiyosakae 0-4-11 so basicaly 0-15 at Juryo 13w down for sure. So it's between Asanoyama 0-0-15 Juryo 3w or Kiryuko 4-11 Juryo 12w to go down. I'm thinking Asanoyama stay and Kiryuko to Makushita

Does someone know how many kensho received Takerufuji for his fantastic basho?

What if one of us had knowledge in the field? Weight is a secondary factor when treating an injury. They should find a solution to move them from the doyo when they are injured. It's not like it's 2024... First we treat the pain if it is unbearable. Secondly, we immobilize the injured limb and ESPECIALLY we do not move it unnecessarily/ Rolling Tsurugisho in this way is excruciating to see! As said above for Kinbozan, no one came to his side to see what happened! And it was at this moment that the medical presence was important and had to be rapid! Head/neck/back injuries should be taken very seriously! In short... nothing new unfortunately...

Injury management drive me nuts... It's crazy... In what sport do you roll an athlete with a leg injury to move him? first we immobilize the leg with a splint. We give him painkiller, THEN we move him safely! Poor Tsurugisho... I had heard that since this basho medical staff were next to the doyo. Once again he was the last to arrive and... for nothing! Rather than attacking Hakuho, the NSK would do better to look in the mirror regarding the health of their rikishi... Everybody talks about the lack of shin-deshi. If i was interested about joiging Ozumo, this kind of problem can push me in other directions for sure...

We don't see Roga often. Iknow sekitori can leave outside or in a private room but we almost never see him interact with the others members. This channel is incredibly good, all these rikishi are very nice and gentle !
